Holy wow this story was so involving that I found myself hooked to the first line till the end. So real was the countryside you had outlined, so awful the clumsyness of youth, so tragic the scene when you could not find words. It seemed to me almost like a silence in the wake of Paulina confiding to me. The difference between success and failure can be in one tiny twitch. Stunningly written and easy to relate to! 👏🔥
